This is the first song that Phil and I collaborated on in a year.
https://soundcloud.com/sandeep-issar/the-number-one-dream-house-mixI told Phil that I had a half written Acid House Jazz song and about this competition, he thought he could fuse it with an element from his hero, Jean Michelle Jarre ..... and this is it.
We’ve been writing this song since September 2018, but thought of new ideas when Martin and Neil first mooted the Spring comp.
At one stage it was 8 minutes long, but we have cut it down to a really short 5:36 minutes!
The song is pretty abstract but it’s about the Dreams of people who have inspired me....and many others. In some cases they were locked up or paid the ultimate sacrifice for their beliefs; The Luther-Kings, Mandelas, Gandhis, Lincolns and Lennons of our past. The sparse lyrics are peppered with some of their key words or phrases.
It’s about dreams so we hope it’s exotic and we’ve included a Dream sequence to make it more so. Hope you enjoy and feed-back welcome....The lyrics are below:
Sandeep and Phil
The Number 1 DreamVerse
Love is the number 1 dream
Love is the number 1 dream
Visions inside my head
Baby I'm seeing red
D'you ever see what I dream
Visions of deja vu
D'ya ever see it too
Dyou ever see what I dream
Dah Nah Dah
Dah Nah Dah
Dah Nah Dah
Dah Nah Dah
Chorus
I see you Dream
I hear the screams
Taking on the number 1 dream
You wanna fight
For what is right
Taking on the number 1 Dream
An eye for eye
The world goes blind
Taking on the number 1 dream
You're Tremendous
Don't walk alone
Taking on the number 1 dream
Verse

Dah Nah Dah

Don't walk alone
Taking on the the number 1 dream
